Heather Lynn McGuire was my firstborn child. She would wake up in the morning with a smile on her face. She was perfect, she was her grandma's greatest joy. She was my angel, my precious gift from God. She took on a lot of responsibility as a young child. She helped me when I was on bed rest pregnant with my youngest child. She was only 8 years old. I don't know if I could have made it without her help. I believe she saved her little sister's life. Her little sister Laura was her shadow, she loved her big sissy. She was a beautiful kind heart, even when she was going through difficult times she tried to help other people that were victims of domestic abuse. She did want to pursue a medical career but because she was constantly stalked by the man who eventually murdered her, she was unable to hold a job for long. She loved being a mother more than life, she could not leave the area and go into hiding because Philip Gilberti called CPS to report her as an unfit parent. He told Montgomery County MD Child Protective Services that she was using illegal drugs, this was a lie. She did not drink or use drugs. She loved her children, Jesus, and God and believed in angels deeply. These were everything to her and most important in her life.
